Eric Drexler has said that a promising path to the assembler
breakthrough could occur if we managed to manipulate polymer/protein
self-assemblers with greater sophistication. I'm no expert in this
area, but this breakthrough looks like a step towards the realization of
a nano-assembler. Could anyone comment?

dont underestimate the time span in which these things can occur, ive heard
people say 10 or 20 or 50, .. how about 5, or 2? all we need is a new
discovery
